UNSPSC 85695312: Reposition right carpal, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition right carpal, external approach. This surgical intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 0PSMXZZ

UNSPSC 85695312 Reposition right carpal, external approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code reflect administrative and occupational medical services—independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out program management, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for youth in detention, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. No state or local solicitations in the recent-opportunities block actually seek surgical procedures or orthopedic care delivery matching the code's stated scope. This mismatch suggests either miscoding in the source data or that the code has been repurposed for broader medical administration and evaluation services outside its nominal definition.

The recent opportunities span issuing bodies including the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System. Activity is concentrated in California, Arizona, Washington State, and Texas, with solicitation types including RFPs and RFQs posted between July and September 2026, with response deadlines ranging from September through October 2026. Because the code's technical name does not match the work actually solicited under it, pursuit decisions should account for this classification gap—vendors selling orthopedic procedures will find no relevant opportunity here, while firms offering medical administration, occupational health, or healthcare staffing services may find the mislabeling limits visibility into otherwise relevant state and local demand.
